Prachi Garg's books in "Super" series books are based on inspiring stories of women who became instrumental in entrepreneurship as an individual or as a sibling or as a partner. Super women is stories of successful stories of 20 women. Usually my husband read and write detail review, but I selected this book and decided to review it.
Book blurb
This book brings forth the stories of twenty women entrepreneurs who have struck a perfect personal-professional harmony, and a chord with their immediate consumers. Their innovative ventures encompass a varied range of services – from supporting victims of acid attacks, to providing free skin care solutions; from online retail of lingerie, handmade bags and fashion accessories, to eco-friendly products of everyday utility; from pet care products, to quirky merchandise; from empowering folk artists, to providing clinical assistance to those going through tough times; from image consulting to house hunting; from arty solutions, to innovative marketing and corporate communication; from creating happy readers to making religious ceremonies simpler – these entrepreneurs have opened avenues formerly unexplored. Superwomen is an interesting journey of how they played all their roles to perfection, aligning their families with their ambitions, showing the world their true mettle.
"Super Women" is all about women entrepreneur who struggled to save their unusual dream. Women meant to be a homemaker and people believed that women have her comfort zone. The women discussed in the book, work out of that comfort zone and done unusual things. And made business profitable and successful. Stories that touched me
- Madhavi Gandhi who founded ‘Happy Hand’ to revive traditional folk art to help the traditional folk artist. Happy Hand become the key entity between traditional artist and purchaser and make them get a good price for their art.

- Rustic Art made eco-friendly, pure products for baby, hair, and body which are made of natural ingredients and this was started by environment enthusiast Sunita Jaju and Swati Maheshwari.
There are many others but I give some of it glimpse. Which gives idea about the women entrepreneur’s work and their business. I liked the concept, as book like these are my husbands and my favourite genre. But I felt author gave less emphasis on content part. Each author was assigned 4-5 pages. And I felt justice was not done to them.
